Replacing Nunez was a mistake from our side. With just enough time, Salah was going to set up Nunez for a win.
I completely feel you and I was as mad as Darwin himself seemed when he was called to the bench. However, I get Klopp's decision since he was coming back from an injury and wasn't fit to play the whole 90. Gakpo, on the other hand, is performing _really_ poorly for a while now, it should have been Jota... Edit: I know Jota's injured. I said "it should have been," as in, "oh how I wish he wasn't injured! But alas! he is..."
Nunez was a bit tired there's a reason the manager did that
@@vitormelomedeirosjota is hurt
Nunez was starting to get leggy. I think people call it a bad sub because Gakpo was essentially useless
@@stoonley4 yes but luckily his name is not nunez Nobody care
Endo and Macca outclassed the City midfield today. I was also very impressed with Robbo's discipline to stay back when he was subbed on and not leaving a massive hole behind him.
endo was key in this tactical battle... boy how well has he grown, impresses me every week
I'm so impressed that Endo can read the game very well and do his work offensive and defensive 💯. . .❤Endo WNWA
He was already world class at Stuttgart and anyone who followed the Bundesliga knew that!
The struggling players like Diaz and Szoboszlai really need to look to Endo and Darwin to see how you recover from a difficult start with a new club.
Klopp's Pressing system showed the way to how to deal with pep's man city.Never let them settle with the ball.Never seen Man city Being outplayed outclassed like this. Gonna miss this rivalry.
Exceptional tactics by Klopp. With that first lineup, I was a bit scared but within about 16 mins in, Liverpool were fighting. The 2nd half though. City were dominated, the final meeting was despite a draw, a very epic showdown
Klopp is a true genius, going up against Pep and putting up a fight with some players not really as good as Man City players. Just shows how much he has improved this season, with one transfer window that is in a title battle! The Premier League will miss Klopp and Pep when they go tactical geniuses!
Luis Diaz was like a warrior in the 2nd half, really carrying the fight for Liverpool all his performance missed in that 2nd half was a goal. He had walker on strings. But klopp has being a great asset for the PL & Liverpool as a whole and will be missed.
i really like the lad, especially his attitude and work ethic, but I cant help but think he spurned our greatest chance of winning the league with those misses in the 2nd half...
2 big chances missed in a title race like this in a game like this is pretty inexcusable imo
Imagine if nunez missed those chances Media never quit
lad played well but those chances he missed is just inexcusable..
You are so correct @@lordtea
Endo, macalister and elloit were fantastic, that midfield ate up city
Apart from the shocking officiating it just goes to show how Jurgen Klopp has massively rebuilt his team in the space of 1 summer on another day we win this game 2-1 if we took our chances
Luis Diaz was a warrior in that second half, carrying the fight. He takes the chances he had, then you’re looking at a season defining victory for Liverpool tbf. However point isn’t the worst result and city or us haven’t really pulled clear points wise, so still all to play for.
Same can be said about city. if City took their chances they would have won 3 or 4 to 1
Liverpool had way more chances like WAY MORE@@georgeb8679
@@georgeb8679 And if both teams took their chances, Liverpool would have more goals and win
@@vujhvjvgvfujk9888 no son no, you watch games instead of reels
Playing Alvarez on the wing was Pep's biggest mistake.
Klopp outclassed Pep in the second half
Still a single pl. "A" game.
Fan of neither but never seen city defending desperately, Liverpool amazing.
Leg"endo" dominated midfield. Who would have expected to do so well
He done ✅👍✅ wwwoooww!!! Endo 🚩✨
3 Liverpool player impress me so much this game, VVD with his dominance singlehanded the Liverpool defense in the city counter, with sometimes start the counter with his switch passes. Bradley use his opportunity nicely with his driblling open so many chances. And of course Diaz he play like true warrior this game just unlucky not clinical enough.
Also Kudos to Ortega he did a great job keeping the post for City
Great tactics from both Gaffers buh i think Klopp watches Pep alot and tends to tinker with Pep's ids in a way,..... testament to that is the inversion of TAA and now a box midfield and other minor tweaks, something that was almost non- existent in his earlier models
You do know that Klopp's ggpresing came from Sacchi. Pep's tiki taka variants were Cruyff's answer to neutralise geggenpressing. It was a battle of 2 footballing philosophies......and the players quality and teamwork.
Nunez sub was not effective because we dont have Jota in our bench. if Jota was fit and on for Nunez, we wouldve win maybe 2 more goals
It was really unfortunate for us. Instead, we had that lanky dutchman. Hes been very poor lately
@@justarandomdude3201 had a theory if he sub in for Diaz, things could be different. but we move on
@@schneeraizor7020nah u tripping diaz was good
Really great game by Liverpool. Normally when a manager is about to leave, play morale are low. But what a great game. As a city fan, ederson fucked up and Liverpool scored. But I was surprised with a few of the chances by Salah and dias not going in. You deff dominated us in second half. Although I like to think which grealish playing instead of Alvarez( if he was fit), y'aal still may have dominated who knows, but I do think we would have more control in that center
No loserpool are born to lose
Was waiting for this video
I like how Kovacic and Doku came to reduce the pressure and stabilize the midfield
As always, 5 star analysis 👏🏾👏🏾
Your vids are getting better! This was awesome!!
I think City are better suited playing in a false 9 system in matches like this. This is where I prefer a player like Aguero. Aguero, under Pep, went from being a traditional striker to a false 9 where he would drop deep to link with City's midfield and then drift wide to cause those flank overloads. Haaland, in as much as he is a lethal striker, lacks the technical ability to play in that false 9 role like Aguero did. If you look at the City vs Liverpool games of the past, still under Pep and Klopp era, you will understand what I'm talking about. City vs Liverpool games in the 2018/19 season for example when City had prime Leroy Sane, prime Sterling and Prime Aguero as the forwards, constantly gave Liverpool headaches even in away games at Anfield. It was much more difficult to man mark that front 3 (Sane, Sterling and Aguero) as compared to the current forwards we have. With Sane and Sterling, City had pace on the wings, meaning City could also play on the counter attack during transitions. In yesterday's game, however, City were not only dominated in midfield but also off-the ball, City seemed lethargic. Haaland is not a great presser of the ball, and that in turn affects how the team presses. I miss that trio of Aguero, Sterling and Sane.
Haaland isn't even really lethal. He misses a ton of chances and gets by mostly on tap-ins. They're much off selling him as soon as possible. He's an utter liability if he's not tapping the ball in.
your analysis is so great, thank you so much
As Arsenal fan I loved the game I was hate watching but I forgot about that n damn pool in that second half was superb plus idk why he took Nunez off thou
Nunez is just coming back from injury so he’s not fully fit and was looking leggy before coming off. The way Darwin plays uses up so much energy, he’s an absolute livewire
I LIKE YOUR ANALYSIS, I THINK ON KZhead YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE THAT YOUR ANALYSIS IS SOO CLEAR. I THINK YOU HAVE BECOME A COACH SOMETIME. I'M MENEZCO-TV FROM GHANA. I REALLY LOVE YOU.
Kovacic replacing de bruyne saved city from losing
Don't you think Bernardo Silva should have left?
@@amadoralmeida7190 Nope... bernado better than kdb at keeping the ball
@@newwave3366 And Bernardo is a pressing monster. Always better than KdB in this kind of match
@@amadoralmeida7190 i love de bruyne but that change saved us
@@amadoralmeida7190 Pep swapped Bernando to the right and Foden to middle so that Bernardo who has better workrate can track Robertson bombing down the flank. Remove Bernando and we will overwhelm your right side even more
Great game. Liverpool deserved the win. Had Nunez stayed in, I think they would have had it. Silva also mad3 an impressive showing
I saw City prioritizing closing lines to End, allowing Gomez/ Robertson to drift up field, on the second half (on the left)
Great analysis dude!
You’ve done Klopp dirty with that photo of him at the end 😂
That his best snapshot
Great Analysis Man, Hats down to you! I’m LFC fan whole my life, and this second half was one of the most beautiful and dominant plays! So proud! Still cant accept Klopp is leaving😢 My biggest admiration in this game is Klopp exposing Haland as a City weaknes - not enough involved in a build up, not a great passer, dont get the Tiki Taka, not grear game understandig… Sooner or later Pep’s gonna hate him…
Pep Vs Klopp ... There battle was epic
the main difference is intensity, Liverpool players so much energy to run and cover the fields, applying pressure i gotta feeling Pep is aware so he instructed Ederson to play long ball much more often, compare to Kelleher on the other side i dont get the reason why Alvarez underperformed most of the time i watched, probably he was selected to start because of his work rate had Doku started instead, City could’ve posed more threat to Liverpool defence
doku loses the ball more, inthe 2nd half there are mulitple counter attack i can see coming from doku's side. Our right side is bombarded due to foden high pressing, our left side is bombared due to doku liability on defensive side.. Alvares was good on first half of the game tbf
Liverpool is the only team that could do that to city , only villa managed to dominate them more but i doubt they can do it again
This is the only time I have seen Liverpool do it to us
@@viksinha5410only game you’ve watched?
@@willparrish863 Name another City Liverpool game in which they dominated us from start to finish

@@viksinha5410also both UCL games in 2017/18.
Similar to the latest post on premier league analyzed, except that has even more attention on the Endo role.
I think it's difficult to compare tactics when the energy levels of the two teams were so vastly different. Liverpool were pressing with 3 and 4 players almost the whole match while City seemed strangely inert. I know that's partially coaching and systems but City probably could've benefited from running a LITTLE...
When a home team is running and pressing like that is very hard to match the energy as a road team. You got to give the fans credit for giving Liverpool that extra boost to press and attack relentlessly for 90 minutes. That’s a lot harder to do on the road.
Everyone watched Haaland and De Bruyne have one shot on target and one touch in the opponents box against Gomez, Quansah, and Bradley and still say City are favorites for the title xD
Bernado Silva has become a master of cheeky dirty play to disrupt opponents somehow almost always avoiding cards
What a game. Klopp coached a win but it never really came.
Endo his a destroyer of every coach plan or tactics with his just sample touches and passes. . .Endo 🚩 YNWA
NASA is trying to get the Endo stats to start studies about "the three lungs kind of man "
Can anyone say how can i get this tactics board online for making my videos.
Yours tactics are so good but please start going deeper analysing and start making at least long videos. Thank u
Post the manchester united vs liverpool 4-3 tactical analysis
This was a battle of the mights
Need Xabi's Bayer analysis vs Wolfsburg
We need a match analysis of Utd vs Liv. Ten Hag took some bold decisions in that game.
Already playing Xavi Ball
The best is yet to come ...its the FA Cup final where the last clash will take place !
I don't know how pep doesn't get in doku just after half time because of what we have seen in first half brandly pushing up higher but that can be advantage for city if they get doku on the ball and that can be stop that right hand side danger
Doku slow , City need players with speed
Sometimes I just dont get pep. A backup striker in midfield over a veteran MIDFIELDER who's been on good form at Anfield was just suicidal.
Utd vs Liverpool analysis please
Both teams dropping points gives Arsenal the advantage for sure. If Arsenal can keep up their current form, they'd win the title.
They struggled against Brentford, steam is running out as per usual lmao. I'd say 50% City, 40% Liverpool and 10% for them
Nunez and Salah must play together, they do have good connection!
I wanted liverpool to win this time,klopp is threatening city even without guys like salah,trent,Robertson.he is using talented kids like Bradley,endo and unknown quansah and still gives tough time to city.seriously klopp needs good farewell
The Liverpool players we’re hesitant to shoot alot of times,they’d rather pass the ball in than shoot idk why honestly.
A dominant showing for who? Cause from what i heard liverpool had more possession and passes etc
This is too good
You never mentioned why alvarez & foden never involved in pressing bradley & gomez, leaving city's center midfield so outnumbered ?
Brooh sub Nunez for gakpo?? playing with gakpo its the same than playing without him, gakpo its better if put in wing or something else but not CF
Gakpo always plays at a slower speed than the others. I wouldn´t did tha sub but Klopp knows more than me i guess.
4 4 2 against liverpool is a death sentence.......they aim at outnumbering you in the midfield. We saw this in season 2019-20 when city used a 4 4 2 and Liverpool outnumbered them in the midfield.,not to forget the gegenpressing,...its a disaster for any opponent.
Didn't Manchester City use 4-4-2 to defend at 20-21 21-22 ?
@@yotsubavilasboas5707 no. They only used that for the liverpool game
City started 4-1-4-1, (Rodri was the "1" and 4 offensives midfielder ahead) and went later to 3-2-4-1 (Stones moved beside Rodri). I think Pep plan's failure was the weak play in Silva and KDB. The original ,plan was about taking the ball and slow down the Liv's usual pressing. That plan worked just the earlies 30 minutes when Foden was unstoppable. Later...till Kovacic came in the hole game was red-.
@@marcelo-bm3kq pep should have just stuck to his usual formation...
@@IamFootballmerc yes....agree with that. Maybe Stones x Julian and Diaz in the defense...more balance. I think it wasn¿t a matter of names...the difference was the intensity and the consistency.
I also felt that sub of Nunez somewhat neutralized Liverpool
And Pep has done it again Imagine playing four AMFs 4 fkin AMFs 😮
Watching this match after the usual Milan boredom with Pioli (Klopp would win the treble every year with our squad, mark my words) confirms my fear: the only way Inter can lose the UCL is by facing Real Madrid in the final. If Inzaghi put up a serious challenge to Pep in last year's final with part of the squad already somewhere else, he can actually beat him this year with a more united team where everyone is on the same page.
Darwin needs to evolve, 5 offsides is so awful and unacceptable. He ranks 1st in EPL offsides by a landslide and that should be top priority for a 100 million dollar striker. What a joke.
I was so mad after the game that I avoided watching this immediately. However, this game is what is going to push City over the edge. Much like last season Pep will adapt the Haaland and Kovacic roles to find a way to get the best out of his wingers. Bar Foden most of them have struggles and with Bernado playing deeper and deeper the City attack is one sided. He needs Grealish back to balance the left hand and it will push Bernado higher close to him. We saw this in the earlier game against United, if KDB is fit then the two half spaces will be better. Also he should have played Dias to give Stones more room. Akanji while solid is exactly like Stones. He can’t dictate alone as a CB. The Arseanal game will be a litmus for Pep. How well he adapts to the new arsenal will decide the tittle. Much as I think Pool can win it, they are wasteful. Only a matter of time before the have an actual problem running in.
Diaz should be the one substituted and Nunez should have moved to the left with Gakpo in the middle
I was saying same thing, City were there for the taking
Klopp showed the world how to dominate City. Fearless.
That also require anfield environment otherwise this could be different game
Arsenal are the only winners of this match, but I feel like we are the biggest losers. We’re now 3rd in the table, which would equal our lowest ever finish under Pep, and can’t afford to drop anymore points if we want to stay in this title race.
You finished third in Pep's first season and the covid season.
@@jamiejones33 Second in covid season, and as I said, it would *equal* our lowest under Pep
Alright@@viksinha5410
How are you losers, be happy that u escaped with a draw at Anfield, not many teams can say that
Pep out
I would have take Foden off. His end product was woeful. Kept KDB on to drop in behind the midfield line. Walker had a bizarre game as well. Pep doesn't have CBs who could pass out from the back..maybe Gvardiol would have been better here. I'd have shifted Bernado to the wings so that he could hold up the ball..because this wasn't a game that needed pace.
Given that Liverpool were without some of their strongest players it was a victory for Liverpool in that sense.
rip the akanji upgrade
Defense and Milfield was huge testerday. Haaland didnt touch the ball...Silva was missing and even KDB was replaced because didn't get the ball. Quansah did his better perfomance..VVD bought his ticket to heaven and Endo, Bradley ; Gomez and Roberton was perfect defending, pressing and delivered the ball to Macca ( oh my god...Macca) and Szobo Eliott and Salah. The only regret ( for me at least) was the two missed chances by Diaz and Nuñez ( by the way....NEVER ...NEVER... GAKPO COULD BE TAKE HIS PLACE ON THE PITCH). Huge preformance. PROUD
Guardiola should have used Kovačić earlier. City seemed quite shaken and overwhelmed by Liverpool's intense press, particularly in the second half. Kovačić was very composed under pressure (as usual), skipped past challenges & virtually didn't lose the ball since coming on; City ostensibly had better control in the match and seemed more comfortable in possession. The surprising thing is, he was bought particularly for occasions like this - when the opposing press is consistently very high; so for Guardiola to leave him out for so long was a bit ironic.
Agree. I think pep designed four player to take the ball and reduce the usual pressute Livepoll use specially in Anfield. The first 30 minutes these plan works ( Foden was untackable ) till Endo and Ma cca ( omg Macca) took the rythm and Liverpool's intensity starts. I dont remember right now a Manchester City so minimized and reduced as yesterday. Intesity, precisition, and courage. Klopp rules.
think he was assessing since the first half gone for city's side I don't think that he predicted Liv would stepped up the intensity by a level / two. once Klopp instructed the press he switched off KDB since he's a better played in big spaces not small one. I just think that having alvarez instead of doku might have been better. Doku is a bit lacking defensively.
We missed dias,gundo&mahrez😢
Klopp showed dominance but Nunez and Dias failed us at the end.
All I want for Darwin is Onside🎶
The game should have ended 5-3. Nunez was gassed by the 70th minute and he's just coming back from injury. Liverpool will now have to chase goal difference because Arsenal might look like they will bully washed up Bernardo and De Bryune.
I don’t think it’s possible for us to play this badly again, especially at home. Worst case we draw against Arsenal.
KDB unfortunately shows up agaisnt Arsenal.
WTF was Alvarez doing then if he was not assisting in the defense
Liverpool will be champions
As tactics kloop was more sharp than pep.... Beautiful football..
Pep is tactically so good
well he was outclassed here
He not only got outclassed,he was very scared the oil might blow right in his face but the oily stuff once again denied LFC victory.Did you ever watched any Bruce Lee movies lately?
@@BIazy Yes and No, after Kovacic sub Pep brought back the rhythm of the game also tactically he didn't lose but player's mentality gave up
Imagine if this was a two-horse race only for Arsenal to finally lift up the trophy.
As a City fan, based on the second half, I though it was gonna finish like 3-1 or so
Shit were this close of shitting the bed, this close. Thanks to the refs they survived once again otherwise that was a clearly penalty on Macca by Doku.
Man U vs Liverpool pls
Aston villa vs spurs?
how could city have gotten above that liverpool press tactically?
you missed so much from this game lol I get you were trying to get it out for youtube reasons + CL games approaching but would've been a game worth going through with more detail
United vs Liverpool
Don't forget in the last meeting at ethad city deserved more than a win
We want barca vs Atletico analysis😊
Liverpool suffocated City and dismantled their stronghold in tbe middle of the park forcing them to retreat and defend with their life to save a point. But they have Luiz Diaz to curse for humiliating the best No 6 in the world, making him eat the grass and to thank him for his poor end product. Withdrawing Nunez was the only error Klop made, Nunez would have gotten a deadly pass from Salah or vice versa to get that winning goal aside the clear red card and penalty which Liverpool was wrongfully denied
One has a treble tho.
The only missing piece in this game was Jota. He would have broken the tie. Its so sad he missed this game.
Spurs will meet all three. Spurs can beat any of them on a good day. And will be fighting tooth and nail for that CL spot.
How come a draw home at Anfield is a tactical masterclass from Klopp but the same is a major failure from Pep? Lol I guess there's a difference. Our worst season in years and your best along with Arsenal. I'll top that, that was our worst performance since Southhampton over a year ago and probably longer than that. Horrible display from us and we got a point... You lot are living of scraps and act like your the kings of the world. We'll lift the trophy at the end anyways.
Playing/starting without Jota, salah, konate, Allisson, Robinson and Trent vs a full city starting line up will a bench of premium player. Liverpool put 2 academies in the back line and a reserve GK with a kid upfront and a Japanese who cost 16M vs the Best attacking and defensive midfield in the world an more important with 0 fraud change..... still save by VAR and Ref....
KDB shouldn’t leave the pitch, just replace Kova with alvarez and let bernardo go on the left winger! We lost alot of creativity in the second half, thats ridiculous.
KLOPP OUTCLASSED PEP BUT FINISHING MISTAKES AND REFREE MISTAKES 😢
Liverpool should’ve won still can’t believe dokus karate kick wasn’t a pen

What Liverpool did to city in that second half was insane… still think they’ll win it honestlt
Liverpool completely and utterly outplayed them, even in the first half Liverpool had multiple chances to lead in the game. Diaz should’ve had at least a hattrick, 4-2 would’ve been a fair score and that’s a conservative estimate.
